When is Big Bang Day?

Every year on March 21.

What is Big Bang Day?

Big Bang Day, first marked in 2013 and inspired by the European Space Agency's all-sky map of the cosmic microwave background, celebrates the discovery that the universe began about 13.8 billion years ago from an extremely hot, dense state. The day honors Georges Lemaître, Edwin Hubble, and generations of cosmologists whose work turned the faint afterglow of creation into one of humanity's most precise measurements.

How to celebrate

Mark the day with a poster made in Dayfeed — pick your favourite photo as the background, share it to your story or group chat, and set a reminder so you never miss it next year.
